Day 24 – Snow Skiing (final day)

Day Twenty Four: 03/03/23

Resting Heart Rate: 80bpm

Blood Saturation: 92

Last of 3 days skiing and my muscles are on fire!! I really pushed it today on the longest runs, right from the top – all the way to the bottom. Finally learning how to keep my ankles locked together and use my weight to turn rather than my hips, I was nearly looking experienced by the bottom of the last run.

Day 23 – Snow Skiing (day 2)

Day Twenty Three: 02/03/23

Blood Saturation: 92

Another fun day Skiing with my Bro, Wazza. He was on a snowboard, carving it up.

Day 22 – Snow Skiing (day 1)

Day Twenty Two: 01/03/23

Resting Heart Rate: 85bpm

Blood Saturation: 94

I went snow skiing today! I wanted to exercise but do something different. I’ve not skied for many years however it came back to me quickly and I really enjoyed it. I’d like to try those ski’s where the heels lift so you can go off track exploring up and down hill instead of just going downhill and jumping on another lift.

Day 21 – Another 1000m Elevation!

Day Twenty One: 28/02/23

I did another 1000m climb today, even though my watch only showed 938m I’m debating the figure as I walked 3km up in addition (to my last 938m climb), – that should have given me a little more elevation metres than last time. I’m really struggling with which mode to use on my Garmin, and which settings. Because a lot of the climbing is so slow or no movement, the watch times out and skips recording bits. Today was a tough day.

Day 20 – Livigno

Day Twenty: 27/02/23

Resting Heart Rate: 75bpm

Blood Saturation: 92

Not much to report on today. Emotional morning and then a busy afternoon with paperwork and emails. Very stressed, fatigued, tense & uptight. Looking forward to a better day tomorrow.
